Popis: |
In 2014, an interim analysis of a phase 3 study was performed to evaluate the effectiveness of ofatumumab in patients with bulky fludarabine-refractory chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (BFR CLL) as compared to physician's choice. The five-year follow-up of this phase 3 trial showed that ofatumumab therapy resulted in a numerically but not significantly longer overall survival. As only few patients had the chance to receive a kinase inhibitor later, the study displays the survival of BFR CLL patients in the period prior to receiving small-molecule inhibitors. Ofatumumab is a well-tolerable treatment option in multiresistant advanced CLL. |
